Ground pin longest to avoid damaging anything....

A friend helps run the internet archive, they do awesome stuff. But a lot of time the web crawls (especially on dynamic content like forums) doesn't capture everything. File attachments are one thing often omitted. Plus it's not easy to search through since the original RBW search tools would...

I have a CCR where I've always wondered if it was anti-magnetic. The tank seems like a standard aluminum luxfer or something though. Came with this odd tactical vest type BCD. o2 only. OMG / Castoro Italy?

No response so far :-(

If you wanted to buy one of mine at a really high price you could have the most expensive CCR in the world :-)

Seems like a nice compact unit. Shame the price point didn't move down any.

I liked my Sherwood way back when as the skirt was really good. Just curious if the Tusa and modern Sherwood are the same.

These are old pics, and this is for anyone that is curious but at this point seems historical: Index of /home/ethan/public_html/pics/geek/projects/dive_computer_rev/

3d printed? Does it stand up to the torque?

Thanks Dsix36, I dropped him an e-mail. Will see. Thanks again!

I used to read RBW all the time. Bummer. Could someone PM me Sotis's email address? I am interested in trying to archive the site for information preservation. Who owned it before him? I googled around but most of the e-mail addresses I found are probably dead.

Woah, interesting move from Dive Rite! I have a Castoro / OMG C96 which is like a Lar V, it's kinda strange. But oh so compact. How is flood resistance on the Dive Rite? The C96 would flood pretty much immediately if mouthpiece was yoinked out.

I used to own a clear silicone Sherwood mask, and the skirt was great. Good seal and comfortable. It turned yellow, and I tossed it. I didn't know it was possible to un-yellow it using the "retrobrite" method I now use for vintage computer plastics. I have a black skirt Tusa and Mares X-Vision...

Better late than never I guess... the oceanic cable I bought for my versa pro had a pic microcontroller in it. It was made by a 3rd party for oceanic IIRC. I have a picture of the inside somewhere I will link to later. So it might not be too straight forward, but using usbsnoop on windows with...

If the handset floods, is there a possibility that the cable that leads to it could pass water down it? I know a friend's unit had a crack in the cable and he was getting water in the battery box of his unit. On a Shearwater CANBus based unit, I would think that the handset passes the setpoint...

DC dive show returns to the DC Convention Center this weekend. It's Saturday and Sunday. DC Dive Show | Scuba Diving and Adventure Vacation Expo I will be there volunteering with the DC and Virginia and Maryland Scuba meetup group or whatever we're called. There is a Saturday night party...

Unfortunately not ready to hit the water yet this year. Going to test equipment in pool Sunday. Maybe next time!

Most likely they can't afford it. As worldwide asset bubbles were blown big in housing, the young lost a lot of buying power. Much of their money is going to nosebleed rents or mortgages on grossly overpriced houses. This is in addition to money extracted for student loans. For those renters...

It's divine. Quiet, and surreal. I get the concern though, it's been a pretty bad year for CCR'ing. There seem to have been a good number of fatalities on modern units, and the cause is often never published public (or known.)
